> the objectively atrocious driving record of Americans
Well, ackshually, the US doesn't look that bad, according to this chart [0].
The US is #107 of 191 for deaths per capita and #5 of 25 for deaths per mile driven.
However, there are only 25 countries on that chart with data for deaths per mile driven.

- bdjsiqoocwk 2y ago> compared to other high income countries Ackshually go back to your list and tell me which high income countries do worse than the USA. Do you struggle with reading comprehension or something?
- jbboehr 2y agoI'm sorry, but I don't consider in the bottom half of deaths per capita "objectively atrocious," merely "fairly bad." Have you considered improving the precision of your vocabulary?
